Review:

"Emma Chichester Clark's intelligent update of Alice in Wonderland makes it more accessible and less frightening than Lewis Carroll's original, complete with John Tenniel's dark, prickly Victorian pictures. Girls of 5+ should enjoy it." Amanda Craig, The Times

"Retold with beautiful, sophisticated illustrations. Perfect for sharing." Sunday Express

"This condensed version is ideal for younger readers and Clark's intricate illustrations remain faithful to the spirit of Carroll's cast of crazy madcap characters." Junior
